Two other romance novels that became film classics were also written by one-hit wonders who were known, primarily, as poets: Emily Brontë's "Wuthering Heights" and Boris Pasternak's "Doctor Zhivago.""Wuthering Heights" was first published in 1847, using Brontë's pen name, Ellis Bell. A second version, printed in 1850 — two years after her death, from tuberculosis, at age 30 — used her real name. (Bill Ervolino)

Tea-scenes are remarkable in their frequency in the works of Dickens, Jane Austen and the Brontë sisters. At teatime would-be lovers exchanged longing glances; mothers chose suitors for their daughters and rivals traded veiled insults in polite singsong tones. (Manas Das)

Queerty talks about the Madonna Truth or Dare 1991 documentary and unveils an almost forgotten piece of Wuthering Heights trivia:

The plum directorial assignment had landed in the lap of the then-24-year-old [Alek] Keshishian after Madge had seen an innovative pop opera adaptation of Wuthering Heights, that used her music and songs by Billy Idol and Kate Bush to propel the story along, he made while still a student at Harvard.

The production was produced in 1986 at Harvard and you can read about it in The Harvard Crimson or check this clip here.
